Mr. deNagy addressed the board. A copy of the draft proposed budget for FY19 is

members. A budget will be approved at this meeting, but it will not be adopted until at least 60
days have passed from budget approval. Deadline for approving the budget is June 15, and
adoption must be by August 1. Once the budget is approved, it cannot be increased any higher at
adoption, however, it can be lowered.
Mr. deNagy stated an increase is being proposed for this budget. The budget is tight
now, and it is good to have contingency built into the budget so assessment levels can remain
stable for several years. Mr. deNagy briefly outlined areas with increases and decreases. The
overall increase for the year is $13,565. He also briefly discussed the Capital Reserves, which is
located online. This is a list of all the assets in the District and the cost to replace those assets
that is amortized over a number of years. There is annual funding so money is available on hand
when it comes time to replace those assets. The amount of the annual increase for single-family
homes is $60. 76, and it is $40. 72 for multi-family homes. A mailed notice will be sent at least
20 days prior to our public hearing.
There was discussion among board members about using border collies for geese control
and the amount of money budgeted for that.

Mr. Hill presented the Operation Manager's report located in the Agenda Package behind
Tab XI-D.
Yellowstone has taken over, and the transition has been smooth. Cost was received for
aeration of the playing field. It is $23 8.78, and it was recommended that go ahead and be
completed. It is time to do mulch, and proposals have been received for pine bark and ground
mulch. The pine bark is a l ittle more expensive, $44 a yard, for a total of $66.44. Ground mulch
is $42 a yard for $63.42 . Mr. Hill recommended ground mulch. Palm tree prunings are included
in the contract.
E. Amenity Manager
Mr. Waters presented his report located in the agenda package as part of the Operation
Manager's report.
Mr. Waters has been talking to people in the community and doing research to get ideas
for special events for adults and children. A block party idea has been suggested. If a 4th of July
event, Labor Day event, or Memorial Day event is held, and it was for Wynnfield Lakes
residents only, people could bring their own alcohol. It would be cost effective to have a caterer
provide food because of legal liability. A caterer provided a proposal to serve 250 to 300 people
a meat with two sides, roll, drink, condiments, and paper products. They would also deliver, set
up, and clean up. The price would be approximately $6.50 to $7.50 per person. Another

company will provide tables and chairs in the activities field to accommodate additional seating
for the catered event. A 16' water slide will also be included. The event would cost about
$2,300 total. The event can grow if it is well received. He did not have an amount for this type
event included in his budget, so something basic could be done quickly, or the event can be
planned for Labor Day with more time to adve1tise and perhaps do a special appropriations
amount. Other events that can be offered and are less expensive include water survival lessons,
stroller stride program, a fun bus (for children), painting with a twist, and a ventriloquist.
Dr. Sweeney suggested a back-to-school event and asked Mr. Waters to bring an idea to
the July meeting.
